Oh, goodness. Tripped over this on Neil Gaiman's tumblr today, and i think it may have application to other awkward populations (*cough* scientists *cough*). He goes on to post an actual invitation, for those braver than myself.

Yes. Very yes.

Also, this article regarding the recent events in flu research is in the March 12th edition of the New Yorker. The article was written to support the fact that the research was done, which i appreciate (if any connotation needs to be applied at all).
